Import Tips
• Verify grammage exceeds 150 g/m² with lab certification to avoid reclassification to lighter weights
• Ensure documentation proves one-side kaolin coating only and fiber content meets non-mechanical pulp criteria
• Confirm sheet dimensions in unfolded state; folding before import may trigger heading 4820 exclusion
